The fries (Phoenician Fries) from this place are out of this world! Whatever spices they put in them makes them quite delicious. While there, try the cucumber lemonade ... No? Alright then, I thought it was pretty good.

It is a hot summer day and I walked like 20 miles already. This place right in front of Flat Iron is like an oasis. You can sit down, the beer is cold and New York is happening all around you. What else you can ask for?

Unfortunately the falafel wrap was underwhelming. I expected much more from a restaurant that has little options on the menu as I thought they perfected every item. The pita bread was not warm, the falafel pieces were small and the wrap too big, so you had little falafel with every bite. The taste of the wrap fillings was average. Also, although I love sauce, it was still too saucy for my taste. Location is very nice.

The food was unequivocally inedible and nothing like the proper restaurant at all, which I love. The falafel sandwich was devoid of any flavor whatsoever, the wrap was stale and the falafel themselves were extremely dry and crumbly -- so much so that you couldn't take a bite without the whole thing disintegrating into falafel dust. The whole thing was also poorly wrapped making the whole ordeal of trying to eat this junk even more just painful. The brussel sprouts were soggy and missing the right combination of ingredients that puts this dish in my top 5 of all dishes in the City. The only thing that didn't disappoint was the lemonade. And I'm not paying almost $20 for that.

It's not the cheapest lunch option around, but it is is very good. It's a small place that offers only take out. There outdoor seating around the place, or in the park right next to it. I had a Duck and Chicken wrap with fries wand both were really good. The wrap disassembled itself during eating it and made it one of the biggest messes I had with food. So wrapping skills need a touch of improvement here.

Located between Madison Square Park and Eataly, this take out casual spot is delicious, inexpensive and satisfying. The falafel Beiruti is packed with flavor: the perfect balance of spice, herbs and crunch! The hands down best deal is to order the Phonecian fries - an abundant serving of freshly cooked fries seasoned in sumac and served with garlic sauce. They have beer, wine and the mint lemonade is refreshing! Go go go - You will not be disappointed!

good quick place for lunch- had the lamb beef combination with the brussel sprouts as a side- the food is quite delish and the lemonade tasted like pickle juice in it. simple tables and chairs outside and their is a bar by the window but it was closed for additional seating. they also have a restaurant close by. try the brussel sprouts= a must and the fries looked amazing also

I asked for a medium coffee and they gave me a large making me spend a lot more money than I expected. If you have 2 sizes then let the customer know before you charge them. I also ordered a yogurt and they made me spend and super long time to get that order there was hardly ANY yogurt in the cup. COME ON. Why would you do all this for a couple of extra bucks? I just started working in the area and now I will NOT recommend nor will I visit this business again. This is pretty sad.
